this morning on the radio..i heard this….


and found myself singing along to every.single.word.
Isaac looked up from whatever he was doing and said to me ‘Mummy how do you know this song?”
and i thought…’yeah how do i still know all the words to this song thats nearly 30 years old?’ How is it that I can remember ‘wise guys re-al-ise there’s danger in emotional ties!’ and i can’t even remember to get milk when i do the weekly shop??
This is clearly what my mind is full of, all those 80’s classics that i listened to and watched on TOTP.
Seriously how did anyone not know that George was gay? What about those three quarter length skinny jeans and canvas deck shoes? and the old choreography clearly wasn’t so much of a big deal back then *snigger* and love the not even bothering to use microphones…miming and proud! ha!
and of course one little journey down memory lane on youtube…you can’t help but explore a few others, heres another one of my favs back then….

clearly things have moved on..George has a microphone (briefly) and they were both ‘playing’ instruments…whats with the bed sheets waving around tho? the lady in the shower and the three witches at the piano?
ahhh…When Top of the Pops was the only music show? I used to so want to be in the crowd…anyone else?
🙂
